ABOUT THE WORKSHOP
Forget everything you think you know about pie and pastry being difficult, intimidating, or time-consuming. This workshop is your exclusive master key to making tender, flaky, and unbelievably versatile dough with minimal mess and maximum satisfaction!

We're pulling back the curtain on the pastry process, replacing frustration with confidence, and giving you the "cheat codes" to bakery-quality results right in your own kitchen.

What You'll Master

? The Zero-Stress Dough Method
Discover a basic, beautiful, and relatively mess-free method for creating a single, versatile dough. We'll demystify the mixing process—whether you prefer the food processor method or the hands-on approach—and teach you how to achieve tender results every time.

? The "Less is More" Principle
Learn the crucial difference between bread and pastry! We'll illustrate why the goal is to inhibit gluten formation, ensuring your finished product is tender, not tough. This fundamental concept applies to all baking, from pies to cakes.

? Rolling Pin Rulership
Get hands-on practice with proper rolling pin technique. Master the art of achieving a nice, uniform shape, and learn the pro tip of using your rolling pin to perfectly and easily transfer dough to cover a full-sized pie shell.

? The Art of the Hand Pie
Create beautiful, portable treats! We'll teach you an easy way to get those gorgeous, restaurant-worthy crimped edges on stuffed hand pies (like empanadas, calzones, and homemade "Pop-Tarts"). We will be making our own sweet mini apple hand pies that you'll take home to your family.

? The Savoury Showstopper: Tourtière
We'll demonstrate a full-sized pie using a classic, crowd-pleasing Quebecois Tourtière as our inspiration. You'll learn how to roll the top crust, get the edges right, and how to apply a simple egg wash for an irresistible, golden-brown crust.

? The Waiting Game:
Understand why patience is your secret weapon. We'll discuss the importance of letting your pie rest before slicing—a simple step that guarantees a perfect, set filling every single time.

You won't just leave with knowledge! You'll take home your own freshly baked, sweet apple hand pies to share (or not share!) with your family.
